It's a dual hexagon extruder. I respect the decision to concentrate on one system rather than trying to be all things to all people.

I would be a bit careful on the brand new stuff from E3d for a while since they stepped on their ding a lings pretty good with the Phoenix printer deal.

It's a dual extruder for anything you can get to fit the spacing. If the new dual hotends fit, I see no reason to not use them.

Agreed.

I think the hot ends you mention, though are for bowden use. While you could use my extruder to drive a dual bowden system, it wasn't really designed for that. There are probably better options.

The Itty Bitty Dual Extruder is really all about getting the hot ends as close to each other as possible and minimizing moving mass. Neither of these are issues for the bowden.

It seems so. I just got a reply back from E3D regarding the nozzle separation/heatsink port separation distance. 18mm. Looks like the Chimera/Cyclops will not be usable with this extruder due to being too narrow.

For those of you who are not using Auto Bed Leveling yet, here is a caliper holder I made for the i3v. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:570778 It clips onto the X axis v-slot extrusions, and lets you use the caliper's depth gauge to level the print bed.

Please excuse the ugly filament. I'm trying to use it up as fast as I can, and usually paint it to hide it.

Very cool thread. I ordered a i3v 10" last weekend and am hoping I can get most of Clough42's mods to work for it as I am new to the 3d printing world. Thanks for all the hard work guys

Here is my first custom mod for the i3v

What does it look like mounted?

Here is my rear mounted spool holder! This created to lower the overall dimensions of the printer so it will fit in the smallest enclosure possible. Enjoy!
